I would highly recommend A Rural Experience for a guided tour of Ireland. Tom was a very knowledgeable, pleasant and fun "ambassador". Our tour picked us up in Dublin, guided us down to Waterford, through and into County Cork, the Ring of Kerry, the Dingle Peninsula and the Cliffs of Moher. We did this in about three days and the pace was perfect. Tom knew how to get us to around and had interesting facts about all the places we traveled. Kept us on schedule without feeling rushed. It truly was like traveling with an Ireland friend. I am also a runner and was able to get up every morning and explore some of the less seen places. Made my experience even better. Highly recommend Killarney National Park! Oh -- and I enjoyed my lunch of fish and chips with Tom at his favorite place! :)

Our recent trip to Ireland was enhanced by Tom, our driver, His knowledge of Ireland made our trip so interesting. He was also a great companion and story teller. We left him feeling we had made a friend in Ireland.

We really enjoyed our July 25th tour, provided by A Rural Experience Tours, of Kilkenny and the nearby towns in search of our family’s ancestral home in Tipperary County, Ireland. The convenience of having a driver/guide pick us up at our hotel in Dublin saved us from the anxiety of driving on narrow rural Irish roads looking for villages that we were unable to locate on a previous trip to Ireland. Tom, our driver/guide, was a local who was very knowledgeable of the area, and indeed of all of Ireland. In the future, we would use A Rural Experience Tours for any trip to Ireland.

Our driver, Tom, was professional, courteous, and punctual for our 6 day tour.We loved his stories and knowledge of Ireland's countryside. We discussed our itinerary daily and he would make suggestions based on the weather and time allotments.Tom's love for his country is evident in his explanations of the sites. We loved his "Tom-isms"--like "jammers". Tom made our first trip to Ireland very memorable and would highly recommend "A Rural Experience" as a great way to see Ireland's beautiful countryside.
